New players should see this...

BEfore wasn’t any modules restrictions you can equip all modules in exsitence for all ships so that way you could do your custom ship with the modules of your choice

This is what I’d like to see comeback. Why? Because it makes you expect unexpected. In other words now when we see a ship we know what might or might not equip and therefore you play most the same way against those targets. A CovOps inty being chased and dropping mines would be a nasty surprise XD!

So would several covert ops carrying pulsar.  I say no, just for that reason.

Hi everyone. I’m a new player. I have been playing since thursday and I have just bought a brand new tier 2 empire gunship while still messing with the recon ceptor and the sniper frigate.

I have to say that I like the class and specialization system. It is clean and easy for a new player to get focused in a single class and allows you to have a bit of intel on the enemy ship just looking at the class they are flying. But even then, just the kind of customization you can achieve with a tier 2 gunship is quite nice. You have all the modules you would need to enhance your role. I mean, why should I want to fit ECM or RECON modules on a gunship?? Give me the Nanocomposites and the hull beams please, so I can do what I’m supposed to do. To brawl.

 

If I want to fit Recon modules, I already have a Dvergr for that…

 

What I would like is that the tier 3 modules would be unlocked just with the ship sub-faction loyalty. For example, for the railguns you would need to get a better faction loyalty with wardens or legion, not with other faction ones. Because as the loyalty works now, most of the tier 3 modules are out of scope for new players.

 

I understand the loyalty is a way to get some cash from the players, since the loyalty boost is quite marketed in all the steam packs, but still is annoying.

 

Nonetheless, I, as a new player, feel that the game now is balanced, and I can kill tier 3 ships with a tier 1 gunship if I do what i’m supposed to do, and use my modules and tactics for enhance my role.

 

Concerning player base, I think the game has poor marketing. I mean, I’m a huge spacesim fan. I have all the X series games, I played Eve Online for more than a year (i’m in a hiatus now) and I have been playing space sims since Elite in the Amstrad and the Amiga computer.

 

And even then, I had never heard about this game till the last week, because one of my friends was playing it on steam.

 

Well, that has been a nice wall of text. See you in the skies.

Eviscerador T3 has even more modules than T2 :wink: And T4 slightly more than T3 for the passive slots.

 

This game will be properly marketed after release which is Soon(™)*.

The loyalty, synergy and credit grind are still under discussion(Atleast I hope so) so they might get changed in the future. I personally want an increase in speed overall as well.

 

 

*Expected this year I believe

  • There is absolutely no advertising going on anywhere.

 

Yes, I’m going to be that guy (because playing the SC forum is far more enjoyable than playing SC the game)

 

Have you ever logged in to Steam? Star Conflict is on the banner list of games in the free-to-play section. On Steam. This is clearly advertising.

This is not advertising, it is you looking for that game your self, and it is simple ability to download a client with steam integration. When it gets on front page of Steam store - then it is an advertisement, and it was there for some time, when it got released on steam, thats how i got it.

I’m sure all those website reviews were free.

I found the game by chance, bored of STO and other games, typed “space ftp mmo” and got into a “Top 10 online space games” XD Downloaded the launcher and became an addict to StarConflict  XD I agree though that some more advertising is needed to increase fresh victim… errrr new players for speeding up games loading XD
